Patient's question:
The congee contains longan and red dates. Except for peanuts, the red dates were not eaten with the skin. Later, feeling a bit hungry after eating, I had a piece of hawthorn, and it didn't feel right. Except for constipation, it made me a bit nauseous. What should I pay attention to when eating with gastritis?Doctor's answer:
In simple terms, foods high in sugar and acidic foods should be consumed in moderation, as they stimulate gastric acid secretion, which can lead to pain or belching.1. Hawthorn berries can aid digestion and increase appetite, but they are not suitable for those with gastritis.
2. Avoid excessively cold hot pot dishes, fried foods, and pickled foods.
3. Balance meals with a mix of meat and vegetables, and eat until about seven parts full.
4. Chew food slowly when eating dinner.
5. Engage in sufficient physical activity to prevent prolonged sitting.
In addition to treating gastritis, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a positive mood to enhance their physical condition and accelerate recovery.
